Confidentiality

(Confidencialidad)

Una mujer de frente a la cámara pone su dedo índice sobre el labio. Indica que hay que hacer silencio o no decir nada.
In the context of health, confidentiality is associated to privacy, trust, and professional secrecy. People who access health services have a right for institutions or service providers to keep their information or data regarding their health a secret, or any other situation they share in the context of a medical consultation.

Health services, especially sexual and reproductive health, should prioritize the right to confidentiality and privacy during guidance, the consultation, and care, particularly of adolescents and youth. Information can only be shared with their consent.
